At Home, Your Feet Tell a Story
Did you know your outdoor shoes are secret agents of dirt? Scientists at The Cleveland Clinic have discovered that every step you take indoors with street shoes brings uninvited guests into your sanctuary - bacteria, toxins, and a host of microscopic troublemakers.
421,000 Reasons to Leave Your Shoes at the Door
A study conducted by Dr. Charles Gerba, a microbiologist and professor at the University of Arizona indicates that the average shoe sole carries over 421,000 units of bacteria, including harmful strains like E. coli and Clostridium difficile.
Worse yet, these pathogens transfer to clean floors with 90% efficiency, turning your home into a petri dish. By switching to dedicated indoor footwear, you can dramatically reduce the introduction and spread of these contaminants, creating a cleaner, healthier living environment.
Your Time At Home
More than ever, home has become the center of our daily lives. Studies show that Americans are spending significantly more time at home than they did two decades ago, a shift accelerated by remote work and changing lifestyles. As homebodies by necessity or choice, what we wear indoors—just like what we track in—plays a crucial role in our well-being.
What You Wear Matters
What you wear matters just as much as what you track in. The International Wool Textile Organization notes that
"Wearing clothing made from wool and other natural fibers means less synthetic fibers are released into the world."
This isn’t just about comfort - it’s about your health and our planet’s future. As Science Norway warns,
"All synthetic clothing and materials, sooner or later, will become microplastics, a 'time-delayed' pollution bomb... synthetic fibers will never biodegrade, but just keep breaking down into smaller and smaller pieces."
When you choose Kyrgies, you’re choosing to keep your home free from these invisible invaders.
"It feels silly to write, but these Kyrgies have brought me joy. Hands down the best crafted, most satisfying thing that I’ve bought in the past decade."
"Best slipper ever! I’ve had three pairs of these so far and being a daily slipper wearer they are the best I’ve tried! I’ve gotten my best friend hooked as well. If you’ve found these but not committed, don’t hesitate!”
Choose Indoor Kyrgies
Each pair is designed to support your feet’s natural movement while the wool adapts to your unique shape. But it’s not just about style and comfort; it’s about creating a healthier home environment.
The Comfort of Felt
For thousands of years, Kyrgyz artisans have studied the art of felt, which Kyrgies has turned into the art of indoor comfort. The result? Modern slippers crafted using centuries-old techniques, most of which are made entirely from natural materials - pure wool felt and natural leather – but all shaped by generations of traditional craft.
